Repair Cafe (Electronics and Sewing)

Description

Join us at Repair Cafe to bring your broken items and learn how to fix them. (Electronics, Tech, and Sewing) 

Got something broken sitting in a drawer? That lamp that flickers? The shirt with a tear? The toy that stopped working last year? 

Bring it down to Spark Makerspace and let’s fix it together! 

At our Repair Café, Spark members from the Electronics and Fiber Arts Studios will team up to help you repair instead of replace. This isn’t a drop-off service; we’ll work with you, showing you how to diagnose problems, use the right tools, and make the fix yourself. You’ll leave with a working item (we hope!) and a better understanding of how to keep things out of the landfill. 

What you can bring: 

• Small electronics (phones, tablets, laptops, speakers) 
• Small appliances (toasters, fans, coffee makers, lamps) 
• Clothing or fabric items in need of mending (rips, missing buttons, small tears) 
• Pretty much anything that’s broken and not too large 

What we probably can’t help with: 

• Major appliances 
• Items requiring specialty parts we don’t have on hand 
• Anything dangerous or hazardous 

Join us for an afternoon of collaboration, creativity, and community problem-solving. Whether you’re fixing a favorite sweater or bringing an old radio back to life, you’ll leave knowing a little more about how to make, mend, and maintain the things you love.
